1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Kashin-Beck disease (KBD) is a chronic, degenerative osteoarthropathy related to selenium (Se) deficiency. Se participates in the synthesis of selenoprotein in the form of selenocysteine. In total, 25 selenoproteins, encoded by 25 genes, are currently found in humans; however, the effects of selenoprotein genes on chondrocyte apoptosis, particularly in apoptosis-related genes, remain poorly elucidated. Therefore, in the current study, the expression of selenoprotein genes and apoptosis-related genes were determined by RT-qPCR in patients and chondrocytes and the correlations between them were analyzed using Pearson and Spearman's rank correlation, and the chondrocyte apoptosis rate was detected by Annexin V-FITC/PI. The results showed that the mRNA levels of 17 selenoprotein genes were downregulated, whereas two genes were upregulated in patients with KBD. The BAX/BCL2 ratio and the mRNA levels of BAX and P53 were increased, but the mRNA levels of BCL2 and NF-κB p65 were decreased in patients with KBD. The mRNA levels of GPX2, GPX3, DIO1, TXNRD1, TXNRD3, and SPS2 were most closely associated with apoptosis-related genes in patients with KBD. Moreover, in the Se deficiency group, the mRNA levels of GPX3, DIO1, and TXNRD1 were downregulated and GPX activity was decreased, but the late apoptosis rate, the mRNA levels of BAX and P53, and the BAX/BCL2 ratio were increased; the opposite trend was observed in the Se supplement group. Collectively, these results indicate that selenoprotein transcription profile is dysregulated in patients with KBD. Furthermore, the expression of GPX3, DIO1, and TXNRD1 genes might be involved in the development of chondrocyte apoptosis by affecting antioxidant capacity.
